Wilson and Amber:
Winners of the "longest-running, quietest subplot ever" award Wilson and Amber were first mentioned in "Street Cleaning Day" back in 2013, when Wilson admitted to Amber that she was everything to him and asked her to marry him. Amber replied by asking, since they had only spoken twice, could they maybe go out to dinner, instead? There was a callback to this several years later at the end of "The List" when Amber sees Wilson in the crowd and asks him how things are going. He says good. Amber says things are with her, too. They smile at one another. In "Homecoming" we learn that Wilson and Amber took a vacation to Luftnarp the previous spring. As of "Ash Beach" they, at the very least, have a relationship that led them to visit the beach together.
Welcome to Night Vale: Ash Beach: Reaction (Spoilers)
What was left behind becomes what never was.
Wilson and Amber part 3
Evidence of this pair enduring reality shenanigans:
In “Street Cleaning Day”, Wilson feels that Amber is everything to him and proposes to her. Amber says that they’ve only spoken twice. Wilson, apparently embarrassed, says that she’s right, and that he was confused. Cecil, narrating the encounter, adds “Although he was not confused.”
This may imply that a Wilson who had a relationship with Amber was transplanted to a reality where they were acquaintances. Wilson’s memories either adjust after a delay, or he chooses not to argue against his new reality.
In “The List” they have an encounter that seems to suggest they aren’t in a serious relationship, and possibly still barely know one another.
[“Wilson?” says one of us to another. “How are things going, Wilson?” “Oh, you know,” says the other, although he does not know. “How are things with you, Amber?” “Oh, good,” she says. And she is right. Things are good.
And they both take the hand of the person they love, and Amber smiles at Wilson, and Wilson smiles at Amber, and everyone smiles at everyone and at everything, and no one is OK, exactly…]
This wording makes it ambiguous about whether they took one another’s hands and loved each other, or if they each took someone else’s hand and merely smiled at one another.
In following episode, “Homecoming,” we learn that the two of them took a vacation together on another continent, suggesting they knew each other at the time of the trip (“last spring”) and at the time they told the story (fall 2015.)
****The next paragraph contains spoilers from today’s episode, “Ash Beach” ****
In this episode, they go to Ash Beach to celebrate their own first wedding anniversary. While there, however, Wilson remembers having a wedding with another woman, Tanya, 6 years ago. He says he doesn’t know a Tanya, and hadn’t married anyone before Amber.

Worth noting, there is considerable evidence that Wilson and Amber are on some kind of border between realities, much like Intern Kareem. (When Kareem calls or writes his family, he only contacts a reality where he never left Michigan. When he visits, however, he finds a family that hasn't seen or heard from him since he moved to Night Vale.) Likewise, Amber and Wilson seem to straddle realities where a romance exists between them, but at different stages. They do not always appear to be in the same reality at the same time, but either they are at least sometimes, or they aren't but are making the relationship work anyway.
Just to be clear- "Homecoming" directly followed "The List." That means Amber and Wilson ran into each other in public and did their awkward "how're things, good?" chit chat and then TWO WEEKS LATER talked about having gone on vacation together months earlier I know time isn't real, but c'mon. It seems like Amber and Wilson aren't experiencing romance in a linear way. They move between different points in their relationship.
